W. Hollo VAT, Eamiif P. UllODES. Dee2Std Ayor's For restoring to Gray Hair its natural Vitality and Color. A dressing which is at once agreeable, healthy, and effectual for preserving the hair.

It soon restores faded or gray hair to its original color, with tits gloss and freshness of youth. Thin hair is thickened, falling hair checked, and baldness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are destroyed, or the glands atrophied and decayed but such as remain can be saved by this appljcation, and stimulated into activity, so that a new growth of hair is produced. Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the hair from turning gray or falling and consequently prevent baldness.

The restoration of vitality it gives to the scalp arrests and prevents the formation of dandruff, which is often so un cleanly and offensive. Free from those deleterious substances" "which make soma preparations dangerous and injurious to tbe hair, the Vigor can only benefit but hot' barm it If wanted merely for a HAIR DRESSING, nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor it does not soil white cambric, and vet lasts longon tho hair, giving it a rich, glossy lustre, and a grateful perfume. Prepared by Dr. J.
